Remove any stickers and wash limes under cool running water.
Using sectionizer, cut limes into 6 wedges. Prepare ahead to save time on day of production.
Preheat a tilt skillet on medium-high temperature.
In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with Jerk Spice Blend until well seasoned.
Add the seasoned shrimp, onion, and bell pepper to the skillet, in a single layer. Sauté 3-5 minutes, only stirring once. This allows the shrimp to sear, creating a nice-golden-brown color.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in corn, green beans, cheese sauce, and chicken broth. Gently stir to combine.
Bring to a simmer and continue cooking 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cook to 165°F or higher for 15 seconds.

Stir in prepared Penne Pasta and remove from heat. The Jerk Shrimp Pasta is ready.
